The info for this set has been shared with us from the collection of Retro Baloncesto. The Astros Del Deporte set features multiple sports including soccer, cycling, and basketball. The set has an unusually high amount of basketball cards, 95 in total, at a time when most South American albums were dedicated to soccer. A page in the album mentions that collectors could mail in requests for missing discs at a cost of 8 cents each in order to complete their albums.
